Congratulations to GoldenHammer, the winner of the Bodog Poker Blogger Tournament of Champions! This tournament represented the culmination of the very successful Bodog Blogger Tournament Series and saw the top 18 off the series’ leaderboard face off for their shot at first place and a 2008 WSOP Main Event seat.

GoldenHammer played most of the tournaments in the series and entered the championship in 8th place on the leader board. He saw some strong resistance in the heads-up finale against ScottMC who in the final hand had the lead but lost when GoldenHammer made his runner-runner flush draw on the river while holding A-6 off-suit.

GoldenHammer will be flying in from his home in Japan and donning the black and red in Vegas as his first place finish has earned him a spot on Team Bodog to play in the 2008 World Series of Poker Main Event.

Final Bodog Poker Tournament of Champions winners and payouts are as follows: GoldenHammer ($12,000 WSOP prize package, ScottMC (T$540 – enough for two WSOP Main Event semifinal buy-ins), Emptyman ($T379 – enough for a WSOP semifinal and a $100,000 Guaranteed buy-in), MiamiDon ($T270 enough for one WSOP semifinal buy-in) and Cbags ($T109 enough to buy-in to the $100,000 Guaranteed).

You can join GoldenHammer and the rest of Team Bodog on July 3 in Vegas and compete for millions by getting in on one of Bodog’s many WSOP online satellites.
